CAP201403241441
Huawei Sonic U8650 is a low end android phone which is having very low internal storage. it limits the number of applications which can be installed by the user. there are no more stable custom ROM available for the device. Most feasible option is to use application like Link2sd (or App2SD) for moving application to SD card. it requires root access.  that means you have to root your device.
Huawei Sonic U8650 comes with bunch of unwanted bolt ware. if you can remove unwanted applications, you can get some free internal storage.
What are the possibilities
  1. Root your device, install Link2SD and install apps on SD card, uninstall unwanted system apps manually
  2. Flash a rooted custom rom

  2. I know that this is a bit old but I still use my u8650-1 so:
    This is AWESOME! speed improvement is remarkable! but usb connect/mount seems to be not working(could be my computer though so not blaming you :) )...I think /HWUserData is meant to be mounted to /data/HWUserdata but it's not. what about a deodexed version so i can try to make mine as custom as i want? i know it'll decerase speed a bit, but for some reason, some apps need it(nothing important,only a few apps).
    if you see my message then respond please, everything that i really like will become unsupported, stop working(if it's on web),or something else like that...I understand that you probably aren't intrested in tweaking this old thing anymore...(btw, i've tried to comment about 3-4 times, but either my browser collapsed (phone) or my computer threw me out as i was overloading it with just a few webpages)
